John performed a sensational, career-spanning set at Glastonbury Festival yesterday, featuring a whole host of special guests and a moving tribute to his late friend George Michael.
“Sir Elton celebrates the past, present and future of music at last ever UK show,” NME wrote in a glowing five-star review.
“Sir Elton left everything on the field. It was a Glasto set for the ages from a true all-time great. We’ll never see his kind again. So long, Rocketman – and thank you.”
Many fans of the singer showed up early for John‘s headline set, forming a massive crowd around the Pyramid Stage while dressed in costumes, glasses and sequins in honour of the legendary performer.
